“it lives up to 'comfort food with a twist'”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 22, 2012

The sign outside says 'comfort food with a twist'. This was true.

We came from lunch and I saw that they served oatmeal on the breakfast menu. I had a craving for oatmeal. After a quick check with the cook (involved the waitress moving a few feet towards the kitchen, then shouting to the cook), they agreed to make oatmeal for lunch.

My spouse had a similar non-standard request which was also granted. The food was great and came in good sized portions. Combine this with great coffee, and friendly staff and we have a great place.

We were there near the end of the lunch service, so we got to chatting about local politics with the staff. Suffice to say that like anywhere else, there is plenty of controversy in Block Island.
